Scar's POV

It was a Monday so that means school.

I just came home from school and saw Sierra's car out front.

I got happy because usually I'm the first one home after school.

I excitedly walked inside and asked, "Sierra?"

I walked into my room and placed down my book bag seeing a girl around my age sitting at the window.

I quickly said, "Hey."

And walked out of my room, but then walked back in realizing that I don't know her.

I asked, "Um who are you?"

She quickly answered, "Joselina-Josie."

I furrowed my eyebrows and asked her, "Are you sure because you don't sound sure?"

She then replied, "Josie, I am sure."

I then asked her, "Ok, then what are you doing here?"

She answered with, "Oh Agent Matthews gave me this room."

I then realized who she was and said, "Your Joselinamonteagialo!"

She shook her head and said, "No, I am Josie. Agent Matthews has been very lovely."

I looked at her and asked, "Lovely?"

She replied, "Of course this room is much smaller then I'm used to but it will fill much larger when they have that extra bed removed."

I gave her an off look and said, "It's not extra it's mine. Will you excuse me?"

I turned around not wanting an answer but getting one, "Yes, you are excused."

I walked out of my room to find Sierra outside gardening again.

She looked up and said, "Oh, hey pal."

I annoyedly said, "Ha, don't pal me."

She asked me, "Did you meet Josie?"

I said, "Um yeah, and why is she in my room claiming it's hers?"

She said, "Oh, her country's under attack and she wants to stay here."

I muttered, "A normal mom would go to a foreign country and bring their daughter back a T-shirt not a person."

I obviously was not happy she was here.

I crossed my arms and said, "You should've warned me."

She kept on digging with the shovel but said, "I didn't have a choice, she doesn't trust anybody but me."

I rolled my eyes as she stood up facing me.

She said, "Sabrina, what I do is complicated. If I stopped, I'd put her family in danger."

I looked away and said, "Sierra, I get it."

She asked me, "So, are you in?"

I asked her, "Do I have a choice?"

She then said, "Good because I need your help. She needs to stay here for awhile and be protected and in order for that to happen she needs to blend in as a normal American teenager."

I interrupted, "Yea-no that's not going to happen, Sierra, she's a princess."

She gave me a look so I had to agree.

I said, "Fine, who do I say she is?"

I looked away and thought this is not going to work.

I can't be cousins with a princess this is totally unfair!
